I read the first two pages of this story and set the book down to Google whether or not “Hiketeia” was a real thing or something that Greg Rucka had just made up for the sake of telling a really cool Wonder Woman story. You can find The Hiketeia reprinted in the pages of WONDER WOMAN BY GREG RUCKA-it’s the first story, so it’s pretty hard to miss-and read along, either as a first timer like I am, or as a veteran fan looking to get back to the root of things.Īlso, since The Hiketeia is a graphic novel and not a series of issues, I’m going to break it down into smaller sections as denoted by major events taking place. Jones’ graphic novel, WONDER WOMAN: THE HIKETEIA, was not to be missed.Īs Wonder Woman stories go, this one’s apparently pretty definitive-and, added bonus, it’s the current Wonder Woman scribe Greg Rucka’s first work with the character. I dug around, spoke with some very savvy Wonder Woman fans about some “essential” back issue reading and came up with a consensus almost immediately: Greg Rucka and J.G.

Now, obviously, I want to correct that now more than ever, so I’m really making an attempt to hit the ground running here. But as lame as saying that out loud makes me feel, I have to be honest-outside of meeting Diana in crossover events and team books, I haven’t really had all that much contact with her.

I know, I know, totally embarrassing, and this week of all weeks. I’m ashamed to admit this, but.I don’t really know all that much about Wonder Woman.
